Learning about the Heavenly Gang Golden Mystic Pill from Huang Zhen was an unexpected delight.
Yet such a surprise would only truly have been unexpected for a Human Rank Spirit Tamer like Fang Hai. For Fang Qianyuan, it seemed only natural.
Fang Qianyuan possessed formidable cultivation and strength, as well as lofty status. Those he associated with and discussed the mysteries of the Dao with were all extraordinary figures.
He pressed for more details. Seeing his interest, Huang Zhen felt an urge to show off his knowledge and began speaking at length.
"Young Master Fang, do you know of the Immortal Alliance of Recent Antiquity?"
"Yes. It was an organization of cultivators that spanned the Heavenly Realms and governed the various worlds for more than six hundred thousand years of the Xuanhuang Calendar, comparable to the Ancient Immortal Kingdom!"
"Then do you know that this Immortal Alliance once fought a powerful enemy, and that the flames of war spread throughout the Heavenly Realms?"
"Of course. To a great extent, the advent of the Dharma-Ending Age we live in today was a consequence of that war..."
Fang Qianyuan was somewhat puzzled. This was all common historical knowledge. Was Huang Zhen asking these questions because he underestimated Fang Qianyuan's knowledge?
Huang Zhen merely smiled. "Then do you know this powerful enemy's name, where he came from, and what his background was? And what deeds did he accomplish back then?"
"Well..." Fang Qianyuan froze for a moment.
Only then did he realize, to his surprise, that he truly had only a vague understanding!
Fang Qianyuan had grown up at Cang Mountain Academy and received the most orthodox education available to a Spirit Tamer. Even before joining the sect, he had undergone eight years of training, ranking among the best in every annual assessment.
